file serving node and its standby, allowing the failing server to be centrally powered down by the
management console in the case of automated failover, and manually in the case of a forced
manual failover.
X9000 Software works with iLO, IPMI, OpenIPMI, and OpenIPMI2 integrated power sources and
with APC power sources.
Preliminary configuration
Certain configuration steps are required when setting up power sources:
All types. If you plan to implement automated failover, ensure that the management console
has LAN access to the power sources.
Integrated power sources. Install the environment and any drivers and utilities, as specified
by the vendor documentation. If you plan to protect access to the power sources, set up the
UID and password to be used.
APC. Enable SNMP access. Set the Community Name to ibrix and the Access Type to
write+. If write+ does not work with your configuration, set the Access Type to write.
Identifying power sources
All power sources must be identified to the configuration database before they can be used.
Integrated power sources. To identify an integrated power source, use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_powersrc -a -t {ipmi|openipmi|openipmi2|ilo}
-h HOSTNAME -I IPADDR -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD
For example, to identify an iLO power source at IP address 192.168.3.170 for node ss01:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_powersrc -a -t ilo -h ss01 -I 192.168.3.170
-u Administrator -p password
APC power source. To identify an APC power source, use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_powersrc -a -t {apc|apc_msp} -h POWERSRCNAME -n NUMSLOTS
-I IPADDR
For example, to identify an eight-port APC power source named ps1 at IP address 192.168.3.150:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_powersrc -a -t apc -h ps1 -n 8 -I 192.168.3.150
For APC power sources, you must also associate file serving nodes to power source slots. (This
step is unnecessary for integrated power sources because the nodes are connected by default to
slot 1.) Use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_hostpower -a -i SLOTID -s POWERSOURCE -h HOSTNAME
For example, to identify that node s1.hp.com is connected to slot 1 on APC power source ps1:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_hostpower -a -i 1 -s ps1 -h s1.hp.com
Updating the configuration database with power source changes
If you move a file serving node to a different power source slot, unplug it from a power source
slot, or change its IP address or password, you must update the configuration database with the
changes. To do this, use the following command. The user name and password options are needed
only for remotely managed power sources. Include the -s option to have the management console
skip BMC.
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_powersrc -m [-I IPADDR] [-u USERNAME] [-p PASSWORD]
[-s] -h POWERSRCLIST
The following command changes the IP address for power source ps1:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_powersrc -m -I 192.168.3.153 -h ps1
To change the APC slot association for a file serving node, use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_hostpower -m -i FROM_SLOT_ID,TO_SLOT_ID -s POWERSOURCE
-h HOSTNAME
